Finally, the picks of the week. Alex says, “I’m split on whether to get Seven Samurai or Scarface in 4K – they’re both classics. On the anime side I’m going to go with the new Megazone 23 collection (if you don’t already have it),” Blaine says, “my pick is Star Trek: Prodigy without question. Absolutely fantastic and completely underrated. The more support it gets, the more likely we are to get a third season.”
Planes, Trains, and Automobiles is (in my book) the best John Hughes film. This is a hill I will die on.
I need to re-watch The Last Unicorn. I feel like the old VHS copy I had from HBO has some scenes cut from the theatrical release. At least, I feel like that’s the case.
